The root of terrorism is hate, misunderstanding and poverty. You cant fight hate with more hate and violence with more violence.
If we cared about the envionment we would move away from oil, coal and gas into other non-poluting energy sources like solar power, wind power and hydrogen powered cars and engines.
I agree to some degree. One part of the problem is that the network operators does'nt want to upgrade their core routers to increase their capacity. If everyone upgraded their links to OC-768 (40 Gbit/s) or OC-192 over DWDM the bandwidth problem would go away. Ofcouse this costs enormous amounts of money;-)
I read somewhere (Slashdot?) NASA was on the same strategy of sending small independent solar powered spider-like autonomous robots to futher explore the surface of mars beyond what was done by the pathfinder. The good thing is that they can stay alive of a very long time and need zero human surveillance, as long as there are solarpower and all parts like legs, electronics, cameras and other sensors are operational (make them in a strong material like titanium).
One question to ponder: Would we really want cameras on our cell-phones?
Do we realy need color screens on out PDAs?
I remember the first cell-phones that had no displays at all. Today you can get a phone Nokia with high-res 4096 color screen like the Ipaq. One can ponder the usefullness of cameras in phone. But in the wonderful times of moores law then you can fit a digital high-res color camera on a brick of silicon with the size of your fingernail for a dollar that question seams silly.
Cool. We actualy have the first installed TAN cube in the world here at KTH (Royal Institute of Technology) Stockholm, Sweden. Ours are feeded by two SGI Onyx 2000's which each have 3 pipelines each feeding all 6 projectors.
Poor sucker, the database seams to be smoking. I think we killed it.;-)

Fools. Then will the goverments understand they cant control and restrict access to content on the internet. The Chinese have their GreatFirewall(tm), but everyone still can bypass it easily using anonymity servers, public HTTP proxys, IPsec, SSH or ICMP tunneling, P2P networks, etc.
In the best world there would be pure light transport. But today the routers/switches used inside the networks are using ASICs and PNPs (Programable Network Processors) so there are alot of light-to/from-electronic conversion taken place at the input and output of the routers/switches. Pure optical switches based on MEMS mirror technology or bubble technology are on the way but we are'nt there yet for production use. Imagine to have a 10 Gigabit Ethernet optical network card in your computer with fullblow out on the pure-optical MAN.

*sigh* Then will people learn that hacking is not about breaking into systems and doing illegal things. A Hacker is a very clever, smart and briliant programmer. Just to name a few known great hackers: Brian W. Kernighan, Dennis M. Ritchie, Ken Thompson, Bill Joy, Linus Torvalds, Alan Cox, Theo de Raadt, John Carmack.
>Trust: you must allow complete strangers to utilize your multi-million dollar cluster, and they haven't even signed a term-of-use form.
You still have to submit for access to each cluster or resource you want to have access to right? The cluster owners knows what projects and what people who have access and can submit jobs. There will be CAs that garants X.509 certificates which provides "single signon" for access to all resources on the GRID.
>Horsepower: everybody expects to get more CPU cycles out of the GRID than he/she contributes. Obviously, this will not work. (Albeit the load levveling might improve the overall performance.)
I dont think many clusters are used for 100% 24/7 365 days per year. This means there are alots of holes then you could let others run jobs to make use of the otherwise wasted computing power.
I think you all you american citizens should write a letter to your local voted congress man and tell him what you think about SSSCA and DCMA and inform them of the implications this laws will bring.
Blame the computer owner for buying bad quality el-cheapo shit hardware. I have never experienced a system lockup or kernel panic in the 6 years i've run Linux. And that includes _development_ kernels lines like 2.1.x and 2.3.x
You dont understand. This product is not primary aimed to those who develop normal applications. Its for those to develop specialized scienfic code for largescale clusters and supercomputers. There is a market in this segment and a lot of other players aswell with commercial C compilers for Linux on ix86/ix64/Alpha like SGI, Compaq and Intel.
Intresting. Would be great use if they could be used in conjunction with the Ipaq with nowadays got WLAN, GPRS and Bluetooth integrated into one backpack module. And it can run fullblown Linux to and PocketPC 2002.
If the contents stored on the server is under the laws of where the server are physical located.
Then if I understand it if a server/harddrive is located inside a satelite orbiting earth theres no law that governs the contents so you could store and serve everything from that server?
Current DivX (version 4.x) is 100% compliant with the ISO/IEC MPEG-4 standard (main profile only supported). As I understand it Microsoft made the sources of their pre-relese version of their MPEG-4 codec available on the web as a implementation example and a guy in France ripped that version and made DivX 3.11. DivX 3.x includes patented algoritms and code owned by Microsoft so it cant be used in commercial och other products legaly so these guys decided to rewrite the codec from scratch not including any patented parts and that codec is DivX 4.01.
I think is was Sanyo that have created a chip that can hardware encode and decode MPEG-4 video/audio in realtime, the chip is planned to be built into thier cooming 3G phones and sold to other phone makers so you can have wireless video conferencing with superb picture quality aswell as watch streaming movies and television. How about being able to stream your DivX movies (DivX is a MPEG-4 implementation) from home to your phone and being able to forward programs from your Tivo/ReplayTV to your phone anywere and anytime. *drool* The future looks cool..

By that time (3-5 years from now) everyone will use 802.11a which operates at the 5 GHz spectrum.

Yep nothing wrong with MySQL, if he had an dual Athlon 1900+ MP/XP with 4 GB ram and an GigE network card this would'nt happend. :-)

Harry Potsmoker must have take to many hits from the bong.
LOC's have nothing to do with bloatness. LOC's depends on the coding style.
Example on how a function call can look like in many GNOME apps:
function(
foo,
bar,
fuu,
fuh,
feh
);
It could also be defined as:
function(foo, bar, fuu, fuh, feh);
Example this produces 8 lines of code:
while (foo)
{
function(bar);
}
else
{
function(foo);
}
It can also be done in one line by:
while (foo) { function(bar); } else { function(foo); }
You can run anything on it if you port it to the underlying infrastructure. I'd guess its Globus enabled MPI in this case.

Not to rain on somebodys parade but I did expect some CPU and memory improvements for the next model, like at least >400 MHz and 128 MB ram.
